Summer is here ladies! Are you looking for something fun and trendy to add to your look this season? Well, look no further. I have gathered some of the most popular beauty and fashion trends (from Instagram) this summer.
1. Metallic Tattoos – These tattoos are definitely on the hot list this summer! They are temporary and actually really pretty. Wondering where you can purchase these? Walk into just about any beauty or clothing store and you will find these somewhere. They can in silver or gold and are very easy to apply. This is one of my favorite style trends this year.
2. Colorful Hair – Don’t worry, it doesn’t have to be permanent. Blues, reds, pinks, greens… oh my! Some ladies are coloring all of their hair one of these bright colors, while others prefer a more ombre look. Worried about damaging your hair? Pick up some colorful hair chalk online. You can color the strands as you choose and be as trendy as the rest. Be a part of the “Mermaid Hair, Don’t Care” crowd this summer.
3. Nail Wraps – They are everywhere this summer. With hundreds of styles and colors, it’s no wonder women are obsessed with these. Just stick them onto your nails, file them to fit, and you have a beautiful set of nails that others will envy. The only worry you will have is which style to choose! Just beware – one you go wrap, you never go back.
4. Midi Rings – All of the celebs are wearing these this summer. They are rings that fit right above your knuckle, at the top of your finger. Wear them alone or stack them with other rings. However you choose to style your hand candy, you’re sure to get compliments.
5. High-Waisted Shorts – We’re bringing the 70’s back with fashion this summer. You can’t go outdoors without seeing women in these retro, slimming, high-waisted shorts. I’m sure you’ve come across these in clothing stores a time or two. If you wear them respectfully, you can create quite a trendy look.
6. Crop Tops – Why yes, these are in style. You’ll probably see these worn right along with the high-wasted shorts. I’ll admit, I am pretty envious of the girls with their tiny little bodies wearing these. You can find these in any store you go to these days. I can’t pull it off, but if you can – go for it!
7. Bright Lips – Celebrities like Jeffrey Star and Katy Perry have worn these bright lipsticks for years. It was only a matter of time before this style trend caught on. Women everywhere are wearing neon lipsticks and they look hott! I’ve seen oranges, purples, blues, and even yellows! I’d like to think that these colors look ridiculous, but they are quite fabulous. Honestly, I have a bright purple that I like to wear when I’m feeling spunky 😉
8. Retro Swimsuits – Just like the high-waisted shorts, the high-waisted swimsuits are hot this summer! Everything from the style to the color and design will take you back to the 70s. This was before my time, but I sure do think it’s cute!
9. Chokers – This is one style that just doesn’t look good on me, but it looks hot on others! Yeah you read it right- chokers. The kind from the 90s. They are back on trend and now being sold in many jewelry stores.
What other summer style trends have you noticed this year? Are you “on trend” this summer?
I am a wear what I like and feel comfortable in type of person, I always have been. With that being said, once in awhile I’d like to switch and wear something cool and not what I can find that fits. I don’t go nutz overthinking it . I love the trends this summer though, on other people. I enjoy people that have fun with and enjoy themselves. I think my fave this year is all the bright colors. That wasn’t exactly one of the trends so my fave trend would be the nails and lips. My daughter does the nails but I can not get her to try the lips. Plain lip gloss for her. I did get my granddaughter to (wash out only) color her hair with purple and blue. I loved it! The trend I do not like this year, luckily, is not worn by too many. That is the big circles in the ears, nose and chin right in front of the teeth. It is their right though so God bless em – just don’t show me. lmbo
I completely understand that, Gladys. We are all individuals and it’s important that we stay true to ourselves. Every now and then though, it’s fun to try something new! Oh you sound like me. I love colorful hair, on other people! hehe. Thanks so much for reading!
I’ve never been a super trendy person but I am curious about those metallic temp tats lol. Those look like fun. High waisted shorts? Now I can get down with that! It’s kinda funny that what was popular back when I was a kid is coming back now. Now I know what my parents felt like when the 70’s took storm in the 90’s 😉
Hey Josey! Those metallic temp tats look so cool! I think they look better on tan skin, but hey, I’d still rock em! It’s funny how fashion and music repeats itself.
Oh my goodness, several of these things are what I grew up with in the 70’s! A lot of these are styles I would NEVER do myself. I lean way towards conservative and classic styles. I’m kinda old fashioned that way. but I can see several young ladies i know just loving these to pieces!!
Too funny Lois! History repeats itself, doesn’t it? I am loving the fashions this summer! Thanks for stopping by!
I’ve been wearing a lot of lace this summer. On colder days I wear lace leggings under my distressed jeans and have sewn lace onto the pockets of my shorts or around the leg. They make an interesting tan line. LOL.
The metallic tattoos are the things I have seen the most. Not a fan though, of any of the trends lol I am not a trendy person I just follow whatever is comfortable for me, trend or not. 🙂 Although I really, really love the old fashioned swimsuits!
I’m ad to say that I haven’t noticed any other trends this summer. I’m not very good at keeping up with that stuff. The retro swimsuits and metallic tattoos are about the only things I’ve noticed and they are on your list already
Unfortunately, the people in my town are not up on trends, so there is nothing new to see here.. I am in love with the choker trend though. I have a thick neck so a regular necklace tends to look like a choker on me. lol
Yay for taking a hugelt positive spin on it 🙂 I have a hard time finding the right necklaces as well.
I’ve seen a few of those summer trends, not around where I live, but certainly on tv and online. The midi rings was a trend back when I was in high school eons ago. So were the chokers. We all wore chokers then and had all kinds of them! Big flashback for me!
